Hi Everyone. Just wanting to show a picture of one of my young fellas. This is Juvi. He/she is now 14 weeks and almost 14 cm. He/she is the largest of my babies. Not really babies now. The smallest is about 7cm. That is really is a differeance in size isnt it. They are all from the same clutch.

Not a very good picture but I'm learning. Aren't his gills nice and big.
 
Juvi acts as if he/she is the best thing since sliced bread. Well I think so too. lol. Juvi use to eat it's smaller brother and sisters till I found one in it's mouth. I could figure out where they were disappearing to at first. I didn't think it was possible.
 
OMG - I knew they were supposed to eat each other but I never met someone who had them do it.

Poor little axies

That must of been traumatic for you
 
Thanks Cynthia. I pride myself on those gills.

Hayley-Jane, you should have been here. I went to feed them and noticed something at his mouth. A closer look and I found it to be a tail. So I pulled it out. Just in case he choked on it. It was still alive. I then counted and found I was missing 2. I looked at his belly and it was white black white black. Oh boy he had already ate 2. But the good thing is the one I pulled out of his mouth is still alive and has almost caught up in size.

Yeah that is a considerable difference in size Stacy. I agree with Hayley-Jane...Juvi ought to be muzzled...I'm glad you managed to save the 3rd axie before he/she went down the hatch. He would have been stuffed. Juvi's gills look more like wings. He's/she's gorgeous

Juvi is not interested in eating the others now. That was a few weeks ago now. He has now found what a feed dish is for. First in, has a feed then gets out. After the others have eaten Juvi goes back to finish up.
 
Sounds like he has a right old character developing there!

haha his gills remind me of pegasus'(sp?) wings. very beautiful indeed
